Most of the time, a whistle sound coming from the engine is a loose bolt on the air filter housing. It can also be that the fan belt is slipping or the air conditioning pump is not running properly.

Is the engines whistle a sentence?

This simple question is very complex actually, since we have no idea the context of what you are saying. However we can discuss the various means for engines whistle. An engine could be three things: An engine for a car or an engine as in a train or an engine as in a red indian. Therefore we could have the sentences "The engine (car) whistles every time I go over 120km" or "The engine (train) whistled when it passed us." or "The engine (red indian) whistled to his friends to attack!" In the sentences above the word engine is a noun where as the word whistle is a verb. However if you want to say an engine has a whistle then you would say "engine's whistle." Here its important to attach an apostrophy with a "s" to indicate that the engine possess or owns the whistle. So a sentence could read, "The engine's whistle is rather loud so stand back!"

If a chicken has lips could it whistle?

No, it couldn't, because chickens don't know how to whistle!


If a chicken had lips could it whistle?

In my opinion, if the chicken had lips, then yes, it could whistle. But then again, how would it learn to whistle? Someone would have to teach it. And why would a chicken want to whistle anyway? To show off to the other birds? Or maybe it would cheer him up on a gloomy day. . . nah! Could a chicken whistle if it had lips? I guess the world will never know. . .

What does a ticking sound which increases in frequency with increase in speed coming from the engine mean?

It sounds like the engine timing. The sound is coming from your engine valves. They're not in synch with the rest of your engine. It could also be that the valves are worn out. I'd check the timing first, then the seating on the valves.
